Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person

"Hehe," Zi Yan giggled, "I think the butler must have made Xiao Chunhong happy, hahahaha..."

Su Bai looked at Zi Yan. Was he so happy?

It seems that everyone has eight hearts.

Zi Yan added that it was no wonder that the butler was a bachelor of over fifty years, and when he met a charming woman like Xiao Chunhong, wouldn't he be easily attracted to her?

"Shut up, don't call Uncle Kong an old bachelor, it's so rude." Su Bai stopped Zi Yan and asked, "By the way, have you told Uncle Kong about my miscarriage?"

This was something Su Bai had planned before going to Shanghai. Since the third and sixth concubines already knew about her miscarriage, she might as well let everyone know.

In order to ensure a smooth trip to Shanghai, he deliberately decided to reveal this situation to Kong Dai after he returned from Shanghai.

It was obviously inappropriate and embarrassing for Su Bai to personally take the initiative to tell Kong Dai, so he asked Zi Yan to find time to tell him as soon as she came back.

"I said it." Zi Yan didn't seem to take it seriously and didn't have any special expression.

"End?"

"That's it. Didn't you just say that you accidentally fell and had a miscarriage when you got off the train in Shanghai? That's what I said!"

Su Bai slapped her on the forehead fiercely: "Are you pretending to be stupid? How did he react after you said that?"

"No response," Zi Yan took a step back and said while covering her forehead. Kong Dai only said one thing at that time, asking her to take good care of the eldest young lady and take care of her health.

no response?

How come he didn't react?

This is even more strange. You know, when Dr. Jiang took his pulse and found out that he was pregnant with a boy, Kong Dai knelt in front of Mr. Kong's bed and cried with joy, congratulating the Kong family on having an heir.

Afterwards, Kong Dai's loyalty to Su Bai was mostly due to the fact that she was pregnant with a descendant of the Kong family.

Now that the child is gone, his lukewarm attitude is so wrong.

Su Bai asked Zi Yan to go out first. He sat on the armchair, closed his eyes, and thought quietly for a while, trying to find a reasonable explanation for Kong Dai's abnormal reaction.

However, it does not.

One thing she was almost certain of was that Kong Dai had known for a long time that she was not pregnant.

He took good care of her when she first found out she was pregnant, scolded the bearers of the sedan chair if they walked too fast, and always said, "Young Madam, be careful" when going up and down the stairs. But when all this care disappeared, he knew she was not pregnant.

Perhaps, when that small advertisement was posted all over the city, others became suspicious of Su Bai, but he took practical action to investigate his own background?

Su Bai thought of a time point, that is, during those days when he lied about going back to his hometown to worship his ancestors, he lied to himself again. He neither went to worship his ancestors nor helped Yang Huasen contact the mutinous soldiers, but went to Tianjin or Dongying to investigate himself!

The more he thought about it, the clearer his thoughts became. Although he couldn't remember the exact date, it was probably from that time that Kong Dai began to not care about the baby in her belly.

However, there is still one thing that does not make sense. Since he already knew that I was the fake eldest lady and there was no child in my belly, why was he still so determined to stand by my side? He did not hesitate at all when it came to killing Yan Xi to silence her.

I didn't figure it out before, and now I have some new information and have some new judgments, but I still can't figure it out.

I'm so annoyed. The more I think about it, the more upset I get.

I have no choice but to use the old method and pretend to be confused.

Adjutant Feng brought the military vehicle back to the carriage inn on the outskirts of Linhua. Su Bai asked Gao Erzhu and Yuan Yuze to go to Linhua together, gave the two soldiers who drove the vehicle some dollars as a reward, and then hired a horse-drawn carriage from Linhua to transport the goods to Longxing.

Linhua would not have been attacked originally, but it became unsafe once Kong Dai went up the mountain and discussed with Yang Huasen. Su Bai didn't know when they would take action, so it was better to pull the goods back as soon as possible. At the same time, he hired three carriages, two to pull the things into Zi Yan's newly purchased Su's Modern Business, and one to pull the things into the backyard of Li's Mansion.

I pulled the string non-stop from morning till night, and now I couldn't care about so many things. I just had to pay a little attention to the people in the yard next to Li's mansion.

As soon as Adjutant Feng returned to Li's Mansion, he went up to his room and observed the small courtyard next door for a whole day. He changed shifts regularly as before, and did not notice anything about the constant entry and unloading of carriages at the back door of Li's Mansion.

Perhaps, they had orders and were only concerned about the back door of Confucius Mansion.

By the evening of that day, all the goods were pulled into the two courtyards, and Zi Yan began to separate the store's merchandise from the pharmaceutical equipment. After dark, she moved the goods from the store to Li's house.

Su Bai used the west wing in the backyard of Li's Mansion as his own laboratory. He moved the relevant equipment and instruments here and assembled them. He was busy until midnight. He only returned to the backyard of Confucius' Mansion to rest when he was so tired that his waist and legs ached.

Although it was hard work, we managed to get all the equipment and raw materials back safely.

Su Bai now regretted agreeing to let Kong Dai go find Yang Huasen. If this hadn't happened, he wouldn't have been so exhausted.

After she washed her feet and lay down on the bed, she felt that it was the right thing to do. Although Yang Huasen's going down the mountain could not weaken Kong Li's strength, it could hit his logistics. How much Yang Huasen could steal had nothing to do with Su Bai. All Su Bai wanted to do was to get rid of that hateful Captain Zhao.

The next morning, Su Bai got up early because he was anxious to complete the assembly of the equipment that had not been assembled yesterday and put it into use as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, the sixth concubine, the psychopath, came knocking on the door again, and she brought the third concubine with her.

Helplessly, Su Bai had to accompany them for a while.

The Sixth and Third Aunts only discovered yesterday that Su Bai had returned, but because the Fourth Aunt was there, it was inconvenient for them to come. This morning, the Fourth Aunt went to her new home, and the two sisters then ran to the backyard.

"Look at the life we ​​are living now, like thieves!" said the Sixth Aunt angrily.

Su Bai asked Zi Yan to give some of the stockings and cosmetics she brought back from Shanghai to the two ladies, and told them that she bought them during her trip to Qingdao.

"You went to Qingdao?" The Sixth Aunt told Su Bai that the Fourth Aunt gathered everyone in the lobby of the front yard a few days ago and told everyone that Su Bai's identity as the fake eldest lady had been confirmed and she had run away.

According to her analysis, Su Bai fled to Tianjin.

Su Bai felt that the Fourth Madam must have gotten this news from Captain Zhao. Kong Li was fighting on the front line. After he received the report from Captain Zhao about Su Bai's escape from the Kong Mansion, it was impossible for him to send someone to deliver this news to the Fourth Madam. He could only have learned it from Captain Zhao.

This shows that Captain Zhao has a connection with the fourth wife.

The Sixth Wife couldn't let go of these fashionable foreign goods. The Third Wife was probably a little older, so although she liked them too, she wasn't as exaggerated as the Sixth Wife. She even wanted to take off her shoes and socks to try on the stockings, but Su Bai stopped her: "There are other people in the backyard. Please don't embarrass yourself, okay?"

The third concubine joked, "Put on some stockings and walk around in front of Commissioner Huang. You'll definitely charm him to death!"

The three were talking and laughing when Gao Hu appeared at the door. He brought a piece of news that Captain Zhao had brought a team of soldiers into the front yard to officially take over the defense of the Confucius Mansion.
